Moz Toolbar Analyzer - Links
-
On the moz toolbar there is an Analyze tool. The third tab is for viewing Page Attributes. That page contains a section called On Page Links.
I can see the External Link count, but I need to drill down further to look at these external links.
I have viewed a page and don't see the external links this tool is seeing. I have searched the page, the source code, and used other tools on the page. The numbers don't match up.
Is there a tool which lists all the external links on a given page?

Hey Ryan!
While the toolbar should be showing you correct link counts, you're right - it doesn't show a list of those links. If you'd like to see that feature, definitely suggest it at our feature request forum: http://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-seomoz-pro-feature-requests.
As for links going out from the site, if you think there's an issue with the tool can you email some examples to help@seomoz.org? It's more of a support question than an SEO question so definitely hit us up there with more information about the issue if you think it's inaccurate.
Hope that helps!

Thanks again Barry.
Google WMT is not of any help. As you suggested Fetch as Googlebot only shows header information, where I need a count of all links Google sees on the page.
What I am looking for is a tool which shows the number of links on a given web page, a breakdown of those links, and this information to be in synch with Google's crawler. Every tool I use seems to offer a different number of links.

Ah right, well, you'll probably have to put in a feature request for the toolbar to see that and again, you'll not actually be seeing through Google's eyes.
I've just tried to run a crawl test - http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test - to see if that breaks down links on each page or not, will let you know (or you can run your own anyway).
You can put the page into Fetch as Googlebot in WMT as well, but it'll just return the code it's seeing, so you'll have to count what shows and what doesn't.
Apart from that, not much I can think of.

Thank you Barry.
I apologize I wasn't clearer in my question. The SEOmoz Analyze tool says I have 100 internal links and 3 external links on a given page. I need an exact breakdown of THOSE links. I require the ability to drill down and see my page as the Analyze tool sees it.
Part of the problem is when I use other tools, they offer different numbers on the exact same page. For example, the lynx viewer shows a total of 61 links on the same page which SEOmoz Analyze tool shows 103.
What I really need is to know exactly how many links Google will see on the page so I can better understand and manage the page juice. If there is a tool that accurately performs that function, it would be helpful.

You can try a lynx viewer which in theory should return every link on the page (it shows all links at the bottom).
These viewers attempt to replicate what search engines see, but don't really look at much beyond the code (ie if you can't see them it probably can't).

Campaign link not working?
I imagine most of the initial problems with the domain migration to moz.com will be cleaned up rather quickly. I did however notice right away my links to my campaigns from the dashboard were not working. I then click the campaigns tab up top and my campaign links worked from there. Just thought I'd share real quick incase anyone else is having the same issue.

Can I see when SEO Moz has crawled my website?
I would like to know if it's possible to see (maybe in my Google Analytics) if SEO Moz has crawled my website. I'm also curious if and where I can see when the robot of Google visited my website. Thanks!

More than 100 links
Hi Everyone, I was trawling through You Tube and came across this video from Matt Cuts from Google about the 100 links limit being removed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6g5hoBYlf0&feature=relmfu I then logged into my SEO account as I remember a previous report we did for a competitor where they had quite a number of pages just over the 100 links, but only barely (They are highlighted in SEOmoz as a warning). Given that google has removed this number from their guidelines and it's clear that a few over 100 isn't as bad as it used to be, is it not about time this was changed or looked at again? Maybe even put ones like these under a new title such as recommendation rather that the alarmist Warning one unless it's ridiculously high? I wonder if the SEOmoz team can also find out a better range figure for it instead of the outdated 100? Regards Alan watch?v=l6g5hoBYlf0&feature=relmfu

SEOmoz Toolbar - Am I the only one who figured this out?
I have been using the SEOmoz toolbar for a while. In the course of a day, and with so many projects going on I end up having about 15-20 tabs in Firefox open at once. Because of the toolbar, my browsing session slows to a crawl and I hate to disable the toolbar because then I have to shut down the 10 projects I am working on. I usually close down my browser when I can't take it anymore and it feels like I am browsing on my 1990's palm device. What I decided to do is install the toolbar on Google Chrome. I don't use this browser very often so now whenever I need to check out a website, I just use Chrome instead of Firefox. Maybe there is a way to turn off the toolbar that I don't know about. Any other toolbar tips?

How can the differences between Moz and Majestic's link totals be explained?
Hello, Newbie here so this might be a really daft question.... We've a few accounts and are trialling different software - across a few campaigns, we're seeing big differences in link numbers from different software (namely Moz and Majestic). I'm assuming there is a really good reason for it - just can't find what it is! Thanks in advance!
